For best results, ensure the butter is very cold before cutting it into the flour mixture. You can even freeze the butter for 15 minutes before use. If you don't have canned peaches, you can use fresh peaches when in season. Peel and dice the peaches before adding them to the dough. Turbinado sugar (raw sugar) adds a nice crunch to the tops of the scones, but you can substitute with granulated sugar if needed. These scones are best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat slightly before serving for the best taste.
